Well, those are a little more obscure than www.nasa.gov, or things of that nature. You know NASA isn't moving its page. Ever. I would never list individual pages of a website. Again, too risky for me! The below might be a good example for an author to maintain references on his or her website - so that he/she could update it as needed.

why citations matter
Although the three sites that were moved were:
1. WFP | United Nations World Food Programme - Fighting Hunger Worldwild. (2009)
2. Donate rice to countries in need -- great vocabulary game. Free Rice 3. Professor J. Stephen Lansing and his work, on the University of Arizona site. A United Nations site, and a professor's site at the Univ. of Arizona.
